What Do You Feed
9,000 Teen Girls,
2,000 Leaders?
FARRAGUT, Idaho—What do
you feed 9,000 teen-aged girls
and2,000 adult leaders? That’s
how many females from all over
the United States are gathered
at Farragut, Idaho, for the 1965
Girl Scout Round-up.
A New York City hotel-man
acting as food director for the
encampment, Peter Rogers,
finds he has some special prob-
- lems on his hands. Texans want
mayonnaise on their sandwiches
instead of butter. Bostonians are
not sure they go for Alaskan sal-
mon. Flounder is okay, but sal-
mon is questionable. But—he
says—everyone likes peanut
butter. On the other hand he
says he has found just one thing
the girls don’t like—vegetable
juice.
It takes a staff of 110 just to
pack and distribute the food for
three meals and a bed-time
snack. Five forty-foot vans carry
the food to the encampment
fyom Spokane, Washington, 50
miles away. The staff checks in
at distribution tents at 5:30
each morning.
Half an hour later, two con-
veyor belts are started and boxes
move down the line to be stuff-
ed with supplies for breakfast.
Then the boxes are loaded
Important
Tax Deadline
On August 2
Dallas District area employers
have an important tax deadline
on August 2, 1965. Ellis Camp-
bell, Jr., District Director of In-
ternal Revenue, reminded all
employers that this is the due
date for reporting and paying in-
come tax withheld and social se-
curity taxes for the calendar
quarter ending June 30, 1965.
Employers should use Form
941 to report their tax liability
for this period, Mr. Campbell
said. It should be mailed with
depositary receipts and full pay-
ment of taxes due to District Di-
rector of Internal Revenue, 1600
Patterson at N. Ervay, Dallas,
Texas.
Mr. Campbell pointed out that
taxpayers who made timely de-
posits of all taxes due for the
quarter in a Federal Reserve
Bank, or an authorized commer-
cial bank, have until August 10,
1965, to file returns.
Agriculture §
Importance to
Ellis County Told
“Agriculture’s importance to
the economy of Ellis County is
not determined by the number
of people living on farms and
ranches. And don’t be misled by
the fact that only 8 per cent of
the sttae’s population now re-
side on farms or ranches.”
Thus declared County Agent
Uel Stockard today. He added:
“There’s a lot more to the
story. In addition to the 8 per
cent who operate the state’s

by processing or distributing ag-

segment in the state’s overall
economy. No citizen is far re-
moved from agriculture nor its
business generating effects up-
on the economy of Texas.
“A check of the 1960 census
figures shows 168 Texas coun-

the total population and only 68
counties with less than 9 p e r

MUSICAL ACCLAIMED HIT
The Six Flags Over Texas
1965 Campus Revue musical

Mr. President!” has already re-
ceived a roaring series of salutes
from newspaper critics and the-

good looks and talent... and per-
forming like seasoned veterans.”
Tony Slaughter in the Fort

Fisherman Near?
Here's Way to
Clean, Dress Fish
"If you’ve got a fisherman in
the family—or even next door—
you’ll probably face some fish
cleaning chores this summer,”
says Claudia McDonald, county
home demonstration agent, as
she offers these tips on how to
clean and dress a fish:
“Wash the fish. Then remove
the scales by scrapping the fish
. gently from the tail to the head,
using the dull edge of a knife.
“Cut the fish the entire length
of the belly, from vent to head,
and remove the entrals. Then re-
move the head by cutting above
the collar bone and breaking the
backbone over the edge of a cut-
ting board or table.
“Remove the large back fin by
cutting the flesh along each side
- and pulling the fin out. Never
trim the fins with shears or
a knife because the bones at the
base of the fin will be left in
the fish. Wash the fish thorough-
ly in cold running water, it
is now dressed, ready to cook.
“Large dressed fish may be
cut crosswise into steaks for
freezing. Cut steaks about 34
inch thick.
“For fillets, cut down the back
of the fish from the tail to the
head. Then cut down to the
backbone just above the collar-
bone. Turn the knife to run over
the rib bones. Lift off the en-
tire side of the fish in one piece.
Turn the fish over and cut fillet
from the other side. You also
may skin the fillets.
“If you’re planning to freeze
fish steaks and fillets, give them
a 30 second dip in a solution
made up of two thirds cup salt
to one gallon of water. Then
wrap and freeze them.”
